973 - Giving Advice in English - Have You Ever Thought About It?

from Happy English Podcast · host Michael Digiacomo Happy English

Do you ever feel a little uncomfortable giving advice in English? Maybe you want to help someone - but you don’t want to sound pushy, bossy, or rude. So you’re not sure what to say. The good news is, native speakers rarely give advice in a very direct way. Instead of saying things like, “You should do this,” we usually soften our advice and make it sound more friendly and conversational. So today, let’s look at some very common, very natural ways native speakers give advice in everyday English.The Happy English PodcastHelping people speak English better since 2014Over 1,000 episodes • 8 million downloads📘 Get free weekly English lessons plus instant access to my FREE Vocabulary Workshop.:https://learn.myhappyenglish.com/free-english-lessons🎥 Watch video versions of the Happy English Podcast on YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@HappyEnglishNY/podcasts🌐 Learn more about my English lessons and courseshttps://www.myhappyenglish.com
